Meru Governor Peter Munya is clearly enjoying attention as more people are fixated on the unravelling political events in Mt Kenya East following his takeover of the Party of National Unity (PNU).

Munya, who has also been on the national spotlight for close to two years since his election and re-election as the Council of Governors (CoG) chairman, was unanimously picked as party leader at PNU’s National Delegates Conference at the Bomas of Kenya on October 28.
